Beijing, China Day 5

We SHOPPED! Sorry no pics though :( They weren't allowed in the shopping centers. All the centers we went to had women that L.O.V.E.D. them some Elijah! They loved his large eyes, his smile, his skin. EVERYTHING! They touched his head (I CANNOT stand when people touch Elijah without asking) and rubbed his head. I then proceeded to pull Elijah closer to me and away from them.

As we walked by booths they would all yell at you "Hey pretty lady would you like to buy a coat or a silk scarf" "Oh look at the little boy - he is so cute" "How old are you?"

Elijah grew very tired of it and put his hoodie on and held my hand for the rest of the day. He said, "I really like China, but I don't like how pushy the sales ladies are here."
